About this Event
Do you have a space that you would like to turn into a garden, but don’t know where to start? This class is perfect for beginner gardeners or anyone looking for a refresher. We will guide you through the steps to transform your yard into a beautiful garden, including maintenance tips and where to find support and resources. We will also include information and advice on container gardening. This workshop will focus on working with nature, observing your space, and demystifying San Francisco's unique microclimate. With your newfound knowledge, you'll be able to create a manageable garden that aligns with the space you have. Bring your questions!
Please note that this workshop focuses on perennial plant gardening, NOT edible food growing. If you are interested in learning about edible plant growing, please register for one of our Grow Your Own Food 2024 workshops.
Our expert instructor Carey Craddock is a horticulturalist who has been gardening and teaching others to garden in San Francisco since 1997. She runs Carey Craddock Gardens where she specializes in edible gardening, drought-tolerant and native plant gardening.
